    Very late to this discussion but I'm aiming to improve inclusivity and am in need of community engagement so that I highlight issues not just pertaining to me. Let me know your thoughts; inclusivelivingconcepts.com.

I get out of bed and wash my sleepy head and wonder what I should choose .I’ve been awake all night my mind and brains had a fight but still I’ve got nothing to lose because I’ve got the hospital blues The doctors and nurses work all day I wish they could have more pay but won’t somebody help me to sleep tonight so won’t you help me to sleep tonight take away the lamps take away the lights because I’ve got nothing to loose cos I’ve got the hospital blues.

    @Parrot123 yes there are such people, they’re called ghost writers and for a fee they will write your book.

    I write short stories and children's stories.

    I need a publisher though who is not going to expect me to pay an arm and a ;leg to publish

    Hi @LP004 thank you but it’s @Parrot123 who is interested perhaps, not myself. Thanks again though.
    (by the way if you want someone to know you’ve mentioned them you have to use the @ sign before their name, then they are notified ?)

    I will share a poem I wrote about love. Mr Sazza said it read like a suicide note ...

    It is not ! 



    Fragile

    Striking colour draws me to the exquisite jewelled filigree soul 

    It is too beautiful.

    I weep, unable to acknowledge it’s terrifying visage.

    I am drawn like a moth to the flame

    I don’t feel the barbed spikes as they tear my flesh, 

    I don’t understand the white heat of passion that has enveloped me.

    The black hole of my sorrow shatters like mirrored glass.

    Brittle. 

    Too fragile to exist in this ugly world.
